If you cannot attend the conference in person but still wish to have your abstract presented and your work considered for publication in the proceedings, we offer a virtual presentation option for your convenience.

Virtual presenters are still required to submit an abstract and, if they wish, an extended abstract before the deadlines (see Important Dates), and at least one author of each accepted abstract must pay the registration fee. Your conference documents will be sent to your email after the conference.

- If your extended abstract (short paper) is accepted, it may be published in the conference proceedings by Springer (ASTI series, indexed in Scopus), even if you do not attend or present at the conference.
- In this case, a fee of €180 (€130 for participants from low- and lower-middle-income countries) must be paid after registering online (see Important Dates). The fee covers the costs of editorial handling, peer-review evaluation, publication, and indexation of your paper (see Author Guidelines and Publications for more details).

In this case, at least one author of each accepted extended abstract must register under Plan 3: Publication Only and pay the applicable publication fee by the relevant deadline (see Important Dates and the "Payment Terms" below for more details).
- If multiple abstracts by the same presenting author are accepted for presentation in the final conference program, an additional fee of €130 must be paid for each additional abstract.
